The house needs updating and the beds are not very comfortable. The lounge chair in the living room looks broken. Also there were very few cleaning products. We understand getting our own food, spices and toilet paper but only one cleaning wipe was left and no other cleaning products were in the house. I thinkLeaving at least one sponge and a small bottle of cleaning solution is not too much to ask. The decor is very outdated also and the throw pillows on the couch looked dirty. We enjoyed the wrap around porch

We hope you had a great time here in the Destin area! Thanks for your feedback about the property. We will speak with housekeeping about the lack of sponges, etc. The sofas are deep cleaned at the end of the busy season, which is where we are now. Yes, the furniture does take some abuse with all the renters. I wish you had contacted us while you were here to allow us the chance to rectify some of your concerns. In the future, remember we are literally minutes away.

We enjoyed our stay in the cottage we had stayed in the area before and love the vibe, close and peaceful walk to the ocean, very clean home. I would recommend this home for sure. Stocked with everything you would need to be cozy and feel at home. Safe environment for your kids!
